A heated argument over a blanket turned tragic when two individuals allegedly murdered a third person in Gajuwaka, late on Friday night. The victim was identified as D. Kiran Kumar, a 24-year-old.
According to Inspector L. Bhaskara Rao from the Gajuwaka police station, Kiran, along with S. Mohan and K. Sriramulu, worked in local scrap shops. During the day, they would load and unload scrap items for the shops and spend the nights sleeping on the footpaths.

On Friday around 10.30 p.m., a dispute arose when Kiran took Sriramulu’s blanket. This minor altercation escalated when Kiran allegedly assaulted Sriramulu, resulting in bleeding injuries. Sriramulu then informed Mohan about the conflict, who promptly arrived with an iron rod and severely beat Kiran. Sriramulu, too, joined in and struck Kiran with a large stone. Sadly, Kiran succumbed to severe blood loss at the scene, the police reported.
The police wasted no time and apprehended Mohan and Sriramulu on Saturday. They were subsequently sent into custody, and cases have been filed against them.
The incident highlights how a seemingly trivial disagreement can escalate into a fatal outcome. As the trio worked together and shared the same living conditions, tensions can easily arise, even over something as basic as a blanket. The consequences of such conflicts can be devastating, as witnessed in this tragic incident.
Authorities urge individuals to find peaceful resolutions to disputes, seeking mediation or involving the relevant authorities if necessary. Swift actions in such situations can prevent unnecessary violence and loss of life. It serves as a reminder for the community to foster a culture of understanding and empathy, particularly in challenging circumstances.
